Step 4 — Deposit to investor account

4Fund your investor account

On the next screen you'll see your investor account shows $0.00. You need to deposit funds into this investor account.

Investor account - deposit needed

Deposit using your preferred method (card, bank transfer, e-wallet). Remember: deposit to the Investor account, not the Real account, so you get the bonus on your copy-trading account.

Tip for smooth withdrawals: Use a payment method (card, bank account, or e-wallet) where the account holder name matches the name on your XM trading account. This avoids issues when you withdraw funds later.

Deposit flow example (same steps on investor account):
